Question Engine load figures (g/rev)

In my quest to learn more about engine management , what's the typical max for engine load (g/rev?) on these cars..?

Jasonius, add me to MSN for OS mapping queries, I'm sure Duncan(Dynamix) would oblige too, but I won't speak for him.

The load will depend on a number of things, basically it is directly related to the amount of air you're sucking into the engine. ECUTek and Romraider use different values for load, but in RR a standard UK STi might make 2.4 g/rev +, I'm currently peaking at 3.7-3.8.

What is your car currently producing bhp/torque wise and what amount of air is it sucking in..?

IIRC load = rpm divided 60 (ie rev/s) divided by air flow g/s..?
eg:
6000rpm divided 60= 100
260g/s divided 100= 2.6 g/rev..?

Yip - Load = (MAF g/s)/rpm*60

I'm around 350-360 bhp on my V-Power map now, peaking about 280g/s.
